Kenny

Celebs and Media

Kenny the MovieBears, take notice:

Coming to Toronto during the G’Day Toronto Austalia Week is an interesting film called “Kenny” (trailer here). Looks pretty good. And so does the trailer. It looks like an Australian reality TV show version of Larry the Cable Guy, if Larry had a legit job caring for port-a-potties. Expect many poo jokes.

Don’t be fooled, it’s not a docco. It does look like Shane Jacobson is as fearless as Sacha Baron Cohen to get a laugh: one shot has him inside a septic tank, scrubbing away.

Is That a PSP Game In Your Pocket?

General

Easy-peasy! Lemon Squeezy! If you have a PSP, or know some poor addicted sap that does, you should… NAY, you MUST go to Photojunkie’s blog and comment on the post to win PSP games! Free! Make a post about it and get double the entries. These sound like fun-o-rama games.

Also, P-junk will come to your house and demo the Wii game system for exchange of a few photos of you hurting yourself or your friends. I’m tempted but the amount of time it took just to hook up the PVR was tremendous. It created a near-divorce pall over the apartment that lasted for hours.

Is it greedy of me to keep entering even after winning a game already?

DeLurk You Dinks!

Celebs and Media

According to Lex, it’s National Delurking Week, and I’m tagged to delurk. Even though I read her site Mon-Friday (I rarely scan my blogroll on the weekends).

She’s offered up a few pat responses you can cut and paste into the comments if you feel intimidated to say anything original. I’ve used her list and modified them to be appropriate to Dead Robot. Feel free to delurk using one:

• Hi, I’m delurking.
• Hi Dead Robot, Amy, RobotBlogger, Shelly, I’m reading.
• I found you through some blog-collective (blogTO, Torontoist, GTABloggers, CatFanciers)
• I chased you down to find out what you are spilling onto your shirt during lunch.
• I like your pretty pictures
• I’m reading because you keep commenting on my blog, making a goof of the serious shit.
• I’m stalking you Dead Robot/Amy/Shelly. Not you RobotBlogger. You suck
• You “tagged” me so I felt obliged to do the same. But I don’t actually read your stuff.
• More food, less silly movie review crap.
• I found you through another blog and I keep waiting for something G-rated like they do.
• You’re in Toronto. I’m in Toronto. What more is there to say?
• You’re a homo. I’m a homo. Just look at those shoes.
• You gave me an STD.
• I’m hoping you’ll give me an STD.
• I’m just monitoring to make sure I know exactly what you’re saying about me!

Favorite, Queer stuff

I find that the best comedy usually doesn’t happen on stage.

This morning while at the gym, I wound up right across from another guy, both of us fretfully trying not to have our body parts touch in the cramped aisle of the change room. We’re taking great care not to get into each other’s way and to compensate, I’m standing askew from my open locker, making the transition from nude to dressed while he’s going from dressed to nude. I yank at a shirt resulting in my underwear flying across the aisle, landing squarely on his shoes.

“Buh!” he says, in utter surprise.

“Good lord!” I sputter, “It’s like you’re Tom Jones!”

I don’t recall this Hinterland…

I must have been out of the room getting a sammich…

(editor’s note – within a few days of this coming on line, this video was removed. It was a near exact copy of those CBC Hinterland Who’s Who animal shorts, starring wood spiders on alcohol, caffeine and crack. Even the announcer sounded the same. It had the ending line of “For more information on the Crack web bitch wood spider, contact…” Sadly, this is the exact reason I’m wary about posting youtube videos.)

(weirdly enough, Lex’s link is working here)
